Hi,
I'd never heard of inSSider until I saw it mentioned in this forum. Anyone familiar with the diagnostic screen? Actually, all I want to know is, how am I doing. I'm running dir-655 A1, 1.34NA with DWA-552 driver 1.6 (cuz I saw here that someone had problems with 1.7).
Anyway, I uploaded a screen print (below). It appears I've got the lowest RSSI (or is it the highest) at -55. Also, I'm the big red line in the lower portion of the screen.
I had channel-scan enabled and I noticed that inSSider showed I was broadcasting on channels 4+8. There were others broadcasting on channel 8 as well, and nobody was on channel 10, so I switched to that channel, which, I guess changed me to channels 6 + 10. Either way, there was no apparent change in performance, although I didn't really have any complaints prior, with the exception that my status page on the router shows I'm getting signal at 70% but am only hitting between 110-165 Mbps.
Anyway, I just wanted to know if I'm doing OK compared to what I could be doing. Funny thing is, I'm the only one in my neighborhood of about 16 networks that's running a Dlink. Hmmmm...
Thanks for any help anyone can provide. (http://members.cox.net/pgm1972/inSSider.JPG)
